Where to begin! Hi all, I've recently dug out my picaxe stuff and started playing again. It's amazing how long its been but I've picked it back up and been making a few random projects purely for fun. I'd like to make robot head that can follow a human. I've had a good search but can't find...

Hi, I decided to try and play with the Tune command as I had a piezo that's been in the box for a while and never used. I wrote it into the "Win" sequence in the code below. However, when it plays in the simulator, it sets output 0 and output 2 to high? This is not good as 0 is the buzzer that...

Hi All. I'm making a simple buzzer game using a 14m chip. The kind of game where you go along the track with the wand and if you hit the wire then you lose. I have added a contact point at the end of the track so there can be a win sequence too. Just a buzzer and 2 red led's flashing for lose...

Hi, Although I have been using my 28 pin project board for a while, I have done anything with the other chips that I bought a while ago. I have been asked to make something for a school fate so I am just going through my chips to see what I can use. I have 3 different chips, all with markings...

Can I use my 28 pin Project Board (AXE020) to programme 14m ans 18m chips? or do I need to make up a new circuit board to programme each one?

I was trying to experiment with the sleep command. I can remember the exact code but it was something like - Main: if pin3 = 1 then gosub greenon else sleep 20 goto main end if greenon: high 2 wait 3 low 2 return After this didn't work I deleted the code without saving it. Now, everytime...

Hi all, I've had an idea for a relatively simple indicator to be used at home using 2 push buttons and 2 led's. I'll have a 2 led's. One will be marked "AM" and one "PM". A simple push button will toggle the 2. (If the AM is on then it will go off and PM will light). I am happy with this part...

Hi All, I thought I'd post a picture and a video for you see my first attempt at a robot. It's a pretty simple 2 motor set-up driven by an L239D motor driver on a 28X1 project board. The range sensor is an SRF005. Now that I am happy with the code I will build a real "body" to make it look...

Hi all, I've finally got my first robot working. I've described it previously elsewhere but for those that don't know it's just a simple "car" that drives until it sees something in its path, then it decides which way to turn by looking both ways and turning towards the furthest distance. If...

Hi, I have built myself a simple car that will move around and avoid obstacles. It's based on the LMR "Start Here" robot which is where I have shamelessly copied the code from. The only difference is where I have used the SRF05 sensor and had to substitute the code to accommodate it. I used the...

Hi all, me again :) I've been playing with the 28x1 project board this week in preparation for me eventually building an avoidance robot based on the LMR starter robot. I've had the servo moving around and I've used the pulsin and pulsout with the debug command to display the range on the...

The only explanation I could find on inputs was this from manual 1 - "Inputs: An input should be above (0.8 x power supply voltage) to be high, below (0.2 x power supply voltage) to be low. It is recommended, but not essential, to tie unused inputs low via a 10k resistor." If I wanted to wire a...

I've said "possible" error as I may just be reading the picture wrong, but I think it could be confusing to newbies like myself. Page 68 of Manual 1 "Getting Started" Look at the image of the led in the top right-hand corner of the page. (To me) it looks as if it is showing the wrong polarity...

Hi Everyone, Here's where I'm at - Soon my wife will be ordering my parts from tech supplies (Christmas pressie!) for me to play around and make my first robot. I'm basing it on the LMR Starter kit. The only differences are the motors and the position sensor. I'll be using the SRF005 sensor...

Hi All, I was guided towards this site by another member. I am a complete beginner when it comes to Picaxe and robot building in general. I have filled my virtual shopping basket on the tech supplies site with everything I need build myself a simple bot based on the LMR Starter kit. The only...
